Weekend TBR Stack!

Every week, I like to post a pic of my To-Be-Read stack and here's the one for this weekend:



You might be wondering why there I've pasted the cover of Brentwood's Ward onto the wall... simply because it's on my Kindle and I have no other way to show it.

Brentwood's Ward by Michelle Griep - I've joined the online book club at bookfun.org and this is the August book. Discussion starts on 8/21/18, so feel free to join us!

The Hope of Azure Springs - I'm eager to read Rachel Fordham's debut novel. I recently signed up for her newsletter and responded to one of her questions via email. She picked me as a winner of her novel and now, here it sits, ready to be read!

The Note - Found this novel at the little used book store I adore and the novel sounds so good.

The Lady of Tarpon Springs - My local book club chose this for our October reading. We'll take a group trip to Tarpon Springs to eat Greek food and watch a diver harvest sea sponges.

So, I plan to read Brentwood's Ward this weekend, starting sometime tonight after the kids are in bed. The Lady of Tarpon Springs will be sitting in the stack for awhile as I plan to read the novel closer to when we'll be discussing it in book club. The others will get worked in on the weekends. 

What are you reading this weekend?

The Books I'll Spend the Weekend With....

It's Friday afternoon! The weekend is when I do most of my reading and I'm eager to spend some time with my books over the next few days.

Here's my current TBR stack:



I'm about two-thirds of the way through Home by Julie Andrews. So far, it's been a fascinating story and I have learned much about this unique woman.

I intend to read A Refuge Assured this weekend as the book club I attend will discuss it this coming Thursday.

Unfortunately, this was a busy week and I didn't get to take a trip to the little used book store nestled in the back of my local library.  So, I added The Note, which I found in the book store last week, to my stack.

My TBR stack is shrinking. I think I need more books.

Yesterday's Book Finds...

My local library branch has a used book store tucked back past the fiction section.  I have a hearty enthusiasm for this bookstore.

The prices are great: Hardback books are $1. Softcovers are $.50.  But, for the last few weeks, all paperbacks have been buy one, get one.  BOGO!!!  That's two books for $.54 (because there's tax)!

So this is what I came home with yesterday:


I haven't read either of these novels and I think I've read only one of Angela Hunt's other books.  I added The Note directly into my TBR stack and The Widow of Larkspur Inn went in one of my unread book boxes.

I love books... old books, new books, used books, good books!
